Outside - Long Reach stands within a delightful plot of approximately one third of an acre in total. There is gated access set within matured evergreen boundaries leading to the extensive DRIVEWAY providing ample parking for many vehicles which is laid in brick paviours with gravelled beds and surrounding evergreen trees helping to secure privacy and there is an integrated Double Garage with doors to both the main residence and the apartment. To the rear of the residence is a terrace laid in brick paviours with a shaped lawn with stocked and surrounding beds and borders and an open aspect to the rear.
Whilst there is nothing COMMUNAL about this property, I do feel the double garage should probably be mentioned at this stage.
